Our deepest sympathies on the loss of your Mom.......she was a wonderful, strong lady and I have many great memories of times she shared with my Mom, Bridie. Even though she was busy with her own four children, she always made special time for the Foudy clan. Thinking of you. Rita Foudy Novorolsky and family.

I want to offer my deepest condolences for the O'Hearn family. My memories of Jean are numerous as I was fortunate to spend many hours of enjoyment at their McCowan road residence. Jean was an amazing woman; always quick with a smile and a laugh. She was also extremely observant but with those three crazy sons, I guess it was necessary . Although I was in their pool many times growing up, Jean was the only person that I couldn't fool. She not only recognized that I couldn't swim but somehow convinced me to allow her to teach me. By the end of that summer when I was 16 years old, Jean had me expertly doing the front crawl and obviously feeling safer in the water. Sympathies from David Pineau and family.
